Please note you can attach the application applying for an ITIN when you file your return. You will not be able to electronically file your return.  It will need to be mailed in. 

 

If you are unable to mail your 2019 tax return as mentioned above, the IRS will only have your 2018 tax return available to determine how much of the stimulus you are entitled.

 

Specific guidance has not been provided as far as how the stimulus checks will be sent out.
